A few days back, I came across the concept of Haiku, thanks to Cuckoo. Haiku is a form of Japanese poetry, where the poems are simple, small and not rhymed. It is nothing but a depiction of nature in its innumerable aspects.
These are the basic rules for writing Haiku :
1. Each poem must have 3 lines, comprising of 5, 7, and 5 syllables respectively.
2. Each Haiku must contain a seasonal word.
Keeping these in mind, here I go...

Mainly in winter

Well that was not so bad I guess :)

Happy Haikuing :)
P.S. Anyone interested in Haiku is more than welcome to take up this tag as well. I have used an old photograph which I clicked long back, you can use any picture as a source of your inspiration!

Ah, I love haiku - it's a wonderful word-art form - so glad you've discovered it!
I had begun a "Haiku with a picture" since November 6 and will be posting my 4th tomorrow. I notice the trend has caught on and it's good to see it becoming popular in the blogosphere.
Your First Haiku and your picture are both beautiful. Keep writing and I'll return to enjoy more. :)
Aah I am late !!
Thanks for the mention Sameera, yes it is fun to do Haiku. Good that you haven't tagged me, I would be doing it regularly anyway. :-)
And your blog looks so cool now, nice colour. Where from you got this template. I am tempted to change mine. Waise bhi bahut time ho gaya... my blog hasn't changed clothes.
Glad to see you after so long Nicky dear!
Yup I loved writing it too :)
Celine,I had loved all your "Tranquil Tuesday" posts but realized they were Haiku only after I discovered it on Cuckoo's blog.Looking forward to reading the next in your series!
Thanks so much for the encouragement :)
